The meeting included representatives from the following media organizations: Addis Admas\, Herald\, FM 97.3\, Awash Radio\, Reporter\, Private Media Owners\, Nafkot Multimedia\, and Addis Media Network. The primary objectives of the meeting were: To foster MCDO’s utilization of existing media channels to disseminate timely information about the TC project.
